About 2,3,6-TRIMETHYLCYCLOHEXYLMETHYL ACETATE
A synthetic fragrance ingredient that adds scent but little skincare value. With irritation or sensitization potential, it is best treated cautiously.
Detailed Analysis
2,3,6-TRIMETHYLCYCLOHEXYLMETHYL ACETATE is used mainly as a fragrance ingredient in cosmetic formulas. Because fragrance materials contribute scent rather than a strong skin benefit, and because public dermal data are often limited for niche aroma chemicals, a moderate or low score is more defensible than treating it as a very safe skin ingredient.
